Yes, Henry VIII is considered a key figure in the establishment of the Anglican Church. His desire to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon, which the Pope refused to sanction, led him to break away from the Roman Catholic Church. In 1534, he passed the Act of Supremacy, declaring himself the Supreme Head of the Church of England, thus founding Anglicanism. This marked a significant religious shift in England, leading to the Reformation and the creation of a distinct English church.

Did Henry's church have a monastary?

If by "Henry's church" you mean the Anglican Church created by Henry VIII in England in the sixteenth century, originally, no, Henry VIII suppressed all of the monasteries and confiscated their land. Since the Oxford Movement in the nineteenth century which attempted to reincorporate lost Christian values into the Anglican Church, there has been a revival of the monasteries in the Anglican Church. If you do not mean the Anglican Church, you are going to have to re-ask your question.
